Reflection
When I found out about Courtney Mattison, I was drawn to the giant corals she made. At first, I thought she took actual corals from the sea because they looked so realistic and beautiful. I eventually found out that she is a sculptor who designs corals out of clay. She is passionate about the ocean and raising awareness about coral bleaching. The message I am trying to send to the viewers of my artwork is to do anything to raise awareness about issues you care about. Courtney Mattison helped me realize that there are people who try to spread the message, even though they might not be gaining lots of fame in the process.
